＂Learning Dad＂ and ＂She Disappeared＂ made great achievements. Where did the realistic theme win？

Special feature of 1905 film network Looking at this year’s summer file, the realistic movie ticket room focusing on "difficulty in entering a higher school" exceeded 550 million, which surprised the public and became a "little dark horse". Among the top ten films at the box office, five are realistic movies, among which 3.526 billion and 3.523 billion were the first and second place in the summer box office in 2023 respectively.

In addition, when the realistic films are out of the circle, the current realistic films have taken on a brand-new look in terms of audio-visual language and the exploration of genre films, which reflect reality and bring far-reaching significance.

Keenly capture social hotspots

Arouse audience resonance and thinking

Behind the popularity of summer realistic movies, it reflects the changes in social environment and creative environment.

The public is paying more and more attention to the real life that is closely related to everyone, and film creators are also close to life, observing society and keenly catching hot topics in society.

The director of "Disappeared She" said that trust is very important in the relationship between men and women, and she hoped to give some warnings to the audience through "Disappeared She", hoping that everyone could be more rational, frank and less deceptive when dealing with their emotional life.

The director of "I Through the Storm" admitted that the film was inspired by friends around her, because her friends were really subjected to domestic violence. During the whole process of reporting to the police and divorce, Qin Hai Yan Dou was with her friends, which also made her find that domestic violence was so close to her.

In the process of writing the script, I found that my close classmates and friends were contaminated with the internet.net-like objectGambling and online fraud finally came to a dead end. Strong stimulation and shock made him decide to shoot this "Put all your eggs in one basket" as soon as possible.

Professor Tsinghua University, vice-chairman of the Chinese Film Association, pointed out that, on the whole, these works are upward and kind, and they don’t just leave the scars uncovered, but sew them up. Finally, the audience will see the victory of justice, the recognition of equality and the reconciliation between people. Warmth shines into reality through movies.

Proper use of type elements

Young filmmakers stand out.

Different from the genre films with strong action and strong scenes in the past, these realistic movies with summer files pay more attention to stories and diverse expressions in their creation, and the commercial and genre elements are properly integrated into the narrative, and the artistic level of realistic movies has reached a certain height.

Yin Hong said that China’s films have gone through a long road of over-typology. But now, these works are just the opposite. They respect stories, and although there are sometimes fighting scenes, they don’t exaggerate them, but embed them in stories. This shows that China’s films are beginning to have self-confidence. They don’t rely on genre to influence the audience, but rely on real good stories and good people to attract the audience.

In Yin Hong’s view, some young actors in the summer file brought more than expected role-building. For example, in "Disappeared She", the villain’s texture was performed, and the performance in "Put all your eggs in one basket" also made clear progress compared with the past.

What’s more gratifying is that this summer, the new strength of young filmmakers is coming. Rui Cui, Olympic bid, Qin Haiyan and even all directed films for the first time or for the second time. They all have movie dreams and strive for perfection in creation.

Behind them, there are also a group of senior filmmakers who act as producers, and the good creative mode of "bringing the old with the new" reflects the continuous improvement and upgrading of China film industry.

The world is vast and boundless, and movies reflect reality and influence it. There is much to be done in the creation of realistic films, and we also look forward to waiting for new works to bring more surprises.
